Product and Regimen Re-Vamp: The Transition Beginning

Now that I've decided to transition, I figured that it was time to change things around a bit. Transitioning is a big step. It means acceptance of your true, natural hair texture. The thing about that is, your hair texture can vary from kinky to curly, silky to coarse, tightly shrunken to loose and wavy. Anything and EVERYTHING is up for grabs with transitioning. So I figured that I should also change out my products to those that I feel would work. Since I'm going natural, why not start trying all natural products. ^_^


My decision to transition during the summer time was not intentional...and it definitely comes with it's fair share of troubles. From experience with previous stretches, I know that my hair is naturally "thirsty". My new growth soaks up moisture quickly. And being surrounded by the dry summer heat doesn't make it any easier. So I've decided to experiment with more co-washes throughout the week. My hair loves water so why not give it what it likes. This also further solidifies my need to buy more Apple Cider Vinegar and to experiment with Aloe Vera Juice. Both products help to seal the hair's cuticles, therefore trapping in moisture...which is exactly what I need. 

I'm currently in the midst of doing loads of research. I already know what I need in terms of shampoos and DCs but I don't exactly know which products to try. So off to YouTube and Google I go. Hopefully I can find some overlapping products and I'll start trying out those, one by one. 

P.S. Tried Tresemme Naturals last night. My new growth loved it and that's all that matters. Gonna finish out the bottle first before I decide if it's a keeper.
